    Learn something new everyday switch on hold down TP for 10 seconds. would'nt have found it without this forum many thanks.Could'nt find how to do it in the radio manual that came with the car. Becker 1 type 4467 Serial no Y5026921 24/99 Try 6971 or 6973
  3. Loren
    You are joking right? Jeez I hope that wasn't a dealer...
  4. Loren
    How to get your radio to display the serial number has been covered here many times. As well you can download the manual here. Please do a search...
  5. Loren
    Is that your VIN or radio serial number? If it is your radio serial number then try 8893 or 8895
  6. Loren
    See if your car came with Option 1D6. That is the towing/trailer hitch option and should have included everything except the ball.
  7. Loren
    Only works on car with Seat Memory.
  8. Loren
    Yes, a good number of MY99, 00, and 01 cars had their radio replaced for peeling buttons. Mine was replaced too - I should throw away my old radio code card - it just confuses me when I need to use the code.

    We need to know your model and model of your car - plus the radio model (CR-210, CDR-220, CDR-23, etc.) to help...

    Many times a whistling sound heard at speed is a misalignment of the front bumper cover and the front hood. To find out for sure put a piece of tape across the hood and bumper seam and see if it still happens.
  13. Loren
    Book time is 240 TU or 4 hours. "Book time" is usually slightly overstated.
  14. Loren
    Todd, You are correct the pistons only got replaced on the 3.4 liter X51 kit. The 3.6 already has the same pistions.
  15. Loren
    No special clutch for an X51 package - I was just stating that because you don't want to put a worn clutch in with a shiny new (more powerful) engine. Also, he is putting this in a Boxster.
  16. Loren
    Try 0956 or 0958
  17. Loren
    Try 4672 or 4674
  18. Loren
    X51 uses differnet: Pistons Inlet camshafts and exhaust camshafts Valve discs, valve springs, valve guides, valve seats Valves, valve caps Dual-chamber suction pump at cylinder bank 4 - 6 Oil suction pipe Oil pan with partition box Gasket for exhaust manifolds Exhaust manifolds Suction line on AIC compressor Intake pipes Intake distributors The transmission should be fine but you might want to make sure your clutch is up to spec.

    Graphite grey is the color for the plastic pieces - not a paint color. Can you take a pic and post it so we can see what is damaged?
  20. Loren
    Your dealer should be willing to get the IPAS code for you. He might require proof of ownership. Be sure to put a battery maintainer/charger on the car when doing the re-programming. The PST2 will refuse to re-program if the voltage is not right on.
  21. Loren
    You can not calibrate the fuel level sensor on a C4 (or C4S) without a PST2 or PIWIS -- did this mechanic have one and use it?
  22. Loren
    You don't need to take it out unless it is broken. Carefully pull on the wire from the back side and see if any pins pull out.
  23. Loren
    I sent you a PM.
  24. Loren
    Check the connector that stays in the body when you remove the headlight. I've seen broken connectors and I've seen the pins pushed out the connector so they don't make contact.
  25. Loren
    You have to remove the rear bumper cover then from the back side push in the pins and clips.
